Grandparents show teenage grandkids how to use rotary phones, clocks and record players

Rotary phones, clocks, record players – who remembers using these? Our grandkids certainly don’t!

Millennials these days are more concerned with what’s happening on their Facebook than looking back at days gone by and showing an interest in the technologies we used to use. Gone are the days every young person would turn the record over, or set their alarm clock for the next day, or call their friends on the rotary phone.

Watch as these grandparents show their grandkids how these gadgets work, and the look of amazement at how ‘ancient’ these objects seem:
